New 66 Gallon Tank needs Community

May I suggest instead of 2 males and three female...just one male and 4 female? Great choices for fish, I am setting up a Lake Malawi tank myself and the choices I made were pretty similar.

Good luck with deciding, they are all such nice looking fish it was very difficult for me to chose which to go with.

I like the ratio. Funny, most women would not suggest such target rich environments much less provide one for one of their pets.

The Yellow Lab in the picture I supplied is one I stole off of the internet. But I have 10 that look just like the one in the Picture.

Actually, you should only have one male to every 2-3 female IMO when it comes to the stock you are planning

LOL, that should say 1 male/3-4 female. The reason....well the male will be less aggressive toward any perticular female. The more females to male ratio, the less likely for the male to harm the females. If you have 2 males to 3 female...I feel kinda sorry for the females personally.
